What is Reiki? How can Reiki help?
Our energy levels in our body are dictated by our thoughts and feelings, our limiting beliefs about ourselves and our daily struggles but also our joys, connection and love and so much more. Our energy is fluid and changing from one moment to the next. This is known as our Ki or another way to say it, our Aura or simply our Life Energy. This is YOU!
Reiki is a Japanese energy healing modality which started in the 1920's by Mikao Usui. Translated Reiki stands for: Rei is "universal" and Ki is "life energy". Reiki is Universal Life Energy. Its the energy that is not you, its the energy that is universal and is all around us and connects us as one.
Reiki Practitioners have the ability to tap into this universal energy to balance out and clear the energy within each of us.
There are many benefits to receiving reiki on a regular basis. The deep relaxation from a session promotes physical healing, mental healing and emotional healing. Reiki can help you manage your stress level of daily life or when situations arise.
Are you tired, exhausted and feeling run down?
Reiki can balance and align your energy levels and support you in the days ahead to help you cope better with everyday stressors. There are noted benefits to people's level of depression and anxiety with regular reiki sessions.
Many of us are in constant fight, flight or freeze response, and our bodies are in constant stress which causes hormonal and physiological changes. Our bodies are not given the time to rebalance and adjust itself. When we give ourselves the space we need and honour our time in a session, powerful deep relaxation can occur and amazing healing can happen on all levels, physical, mental, emotional and spiritual.
An in-person or distance client can have many sensations throughout a session. Each session is unique to each individual. Depending on the clients health, there can be physical sensations such as heat, cold, tingling on the skin, buzzing in the ears, and/or a feeling of warmth surrounding the body. Some clients may not feel anything, except a deep sense of relaxation but this does not mean Reiki is not working.
You can experience the same powerful benefits of Reiki from the comfort of your own space during a distance Reiki session. I've been doing this for 15 years with many stories I can share to back up this powerful statement. There is an energy connection made between Practitioner and Client when a session begins with our intentions. Many of us think of our bodies as defined by the limits of our skin but our energy bodies go out much further than this. A practitioner has been trained to sense your energy body without being in the presence of you physically.
One of my passions is holding space for you, remaining humble to the Reiki energies and allowing your energy to balance and align so that you can start the process of healing, emotionally, physically and/or spiritually. Over the years, the biggest joy is seeing, hearing and feeling the light return and the peace in someone’s eyes after a session.
